Looks like something is missing...it may be a little TOO tidy! But that's because, like everyone else, I'm used to seeing so MUCH on that wall. It does help to make the space look very soothing and restful, and that's a good thing. Once we all get used to the extra space on the walls, it will be lovely. :)

Hahahaha! I think the question all your kids should be asking is...who got cut from the wall? You should tell them that the ones who give you good Mother's day presents get their pictures in the frames, and unfortunately there is not room for the rest :)

Also, Chris and I are eagerly awaiting your next segment. It is a fun and exciting read.

As a person very unattached to your space, I think it looks more restful and clean. I still see smiling faces of the people you love, but I think that clean walls look great too. Change is always hard at first . . . But I think YOUR opinion is the one that matters most. If, in a few weeks, you are still missing the photos, PUT THEM BACK UP! It's that simple.
